Brilliant Beth Boosts Yorkshire Cause
Beth Langston is a cricketer with serious talent and pedigree.
A seam bowling all-rounder, Langston was a squad member when England famously won the 50-over World Cup on home soil in 2017.
Though Langston didn’t actually play in that tournament, not getting the chance to add to six senior caps gained between 2013 and 2016, she has had plenty of ‘Wow’ moments in an impressive career which shows no signs of slowing up.
It hasn’t all been sweetness and light for the Yorkshire star. She was sidelined for close to two years with an ACL knee injury suffered in August 2022, playing only one game between then and mid-summer 2024.
But when she did return to the park in July 2024, she did so in stunning style with a fabulous 6-24 in a Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy win for the Northern Diamonds over Sunrisers at York.
Langston played six years of county cricket for home side Essex before moving north to join Yorkshire. She played for the Yorkshire Diamonds in the Kia Super League in 2018 and 2019 before starting regional life with the Northern Diamonds in the 2020 summer.
She played in the first two Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy finals but missed the third in 2022 having suffered that knee injury a month or so earlier.
Excellent Langston signed for Yorkshire at the start of the new women’s domestic structure in England, ahead of 2025, and helped the county win the Metro Bank One-Day Cup 2 title that summer thanks to a series of valuable contributions.
She is a skilful seamer with good pace and a very handy middle order batter.
At the start of 2022, she toured Australia with the England A squad.
Also in 2022, she captained Yorkshire women to the regional final of the national 20-over cup in the old county structure.
In 2024, Langston passed the 200 career wickets milestone in List A (154) and T20 cricket (57).
